The reactions of bis(2-pyridylthio)methane with MeZn and Zn[N(SiMe)] afford [Bptm]ZnMe and [Bptm]ZnN(SiMe), thereby providing access to a variety of other [Bptm]ZnX derivatives, including the zinc hydride complex [Bptm]ZnH, which serves as a catalyst for the reduction of CO and other carbonyl compounds hydrosilylation and hydroboration.

As compared to oxidative phototherapy, studies on reactive reductive species-participating photodynamic therapy (PDT) are rare. Porphyrins are typical photosensitizers restricted by the oxygen level, but efficacy and selectivity are always incompatible in PDT. Herein, we report that phlorins are ideal hydride (H) donors and explore a water-soluble triphenylphosphonium-modified zinc-coordinated porphyrin (ZnPor) for photogeneration of zinc-cored phlorin (ZnPhl).

Carbon capture can mitigate point-source carbon dioxide (CO) emissions, but hurdles remain that impede the widespread adoption of amine-based technologies. Capturing CO at temperatures closer to those of many industrial exhaust streams (>200°C) is of interest, although metal oxide absorbents that operate at these temperatures typically exhibit sluggish CO absorption kinetics and instability to cycling. Here, we report a porous metal-organic framework featuring terminal zinc hydride sites that reversibly bind CO at temperatures above 200°C-conditions that are unprecedented for intrinsically porous materials.

Article Synopsis
- Metal hydrides play a key role in various catalytic reactions, with a focus on creating molecular metal hydrides despite challenges with toxic materials and fragile mediators.
- This research introduces a simple method for generating a cost-effective metal hydride surface that facilitates sustainable hydrogen transfer, using zinc as a catalyst for carbon dioxide electroreduction.
- The zinc hydride surface significantly improves the efficiency of turning carbon monoxide (CO) into formate, achieving a Faradaic efficiency of 83%, thus opening up new direct hydrogenation pathways that were previously thought impossible.

Reaction of a molecular zinc-hydride [{(ArNCMe)CH}ZnH] (Ar=2,6-di-isopropylphenyl) with 0.5 equiv. of [Ni(CO)Cp] led to the isolation of a nickel-zinc hydride complex containing a bridging 3-centre,2-electron Ni-H-Zn interaction.

The transition metal-catalyzed multi-component cross-electrophile sulfonylation, which incorporates SO as a linker within organic frameworks, has proven to be a powerful, efficient, and cost-effective means of synthesizing challenging alkyl-alkyl sulfones. Transition metal catalysts play a crucial role in this method by transferring electrons from reductants to electrophilic organohalides, thereby causing undesirable side reactions such as homocoupling, protodehalogenation, β-hydride elimination, etc. It is worth noting that tertiary alkyl halides have rarely been demonstrated to be compatible with current methods owing to various undesired side reactions.
